here’s the deal, they prefer applicants to be single, and I’ve been in a relationship for almost 2,5 years with my gf who i want to marry and have kids with.

we live in Cape Town and as far as I know, the airforce offers 3 months survival training, then approximately 7months basic flight training in Pretoria.. This is an opportunity I don’t want to pass up, my gf’s one uncle was a pilot and he’s earned enough money to live comfortably for the rest of his life, he is retired now at the age of 40.

I would like to know if anybody has any useful information such as what remuneration you receive during training.. I know you must get accomodation and food all paid for, but is there anything else and how often I would be allowed to leave the base to spend time with my gf, and after training etc would my gf/fiance be able to stay with me in a home near the base…

Any info would help.. thanx
